Who Should Use Fanged Metal

Ranks and notes come from each Agent's build guide on Zenless Builds.

Alice
AliceDisc set #1 of 4
4-pc Fanged Metal + 2-pc Phaethon's Melody
This is the standard build. Fanged Metal gives Physical DMG plus +35% DMG against targets hit by Assault, and Polarized Assault keeps it up almost permanently. 2-piece Phaethon's Melody adds Anomaly Mastery (converted into Proficiency by her Additional Ability) and is the safest choice.
Jane
JaneDisc set #1 of 3
4-pc Fanged Metal + 2-pc Puffer Electro
The best set for a Physical Anomaly DPS: +10% Physical DMG and +35% DMG for 12s against enemies hit by Assault from any squad member, active almost all the time against bosses. 2-piece Puffer Electro (PEN Ratio) is recommended.
Piper
PiperDisc set #1 of 3
4-pc Fanged Metal + 2-pc Phaethon's Melody
The best set for a Physical Anomaly DPS: +10% Physical DMG and +35% DMG for 12s against enemies hit by Assault from any squad member, active almost all the time against bosses. 2-piece Phaethon's Melody (Anomaly Mastery) is recommended.
Starlight - Billy
Starlight - BillyDisc set #3 of 4
4-pc Yunkui Tales + 2-pc Fanged Metal
2-piece Fanged Metal or White Water Ballad (+10% Physical DMG) is on par with Branch & Blade Song since Billy's CRIT DMG is saturated. Just pick whichever has better substats.
Corin
CorinDisc set #3 of 3
4-pc Fanged Metal + 2-pc Woodpecker Electro
Adds Physical DMG and extra damage against targets hit by Assault. It works better when teammates like Yuzuha build plenty of Anomaly to trigger Assault often.
Ye Shunguang
Ye ShunguangDisc set #4 of 4
4-pc White Water Ballad + 2-pc Fanged Metal
2-piece Fanged Metal (Physical DMG), Hormone Punk or Astral Voice still do fine, especially against low-DEF bosses.
